RemCap

REP

Register (05h)

RemCap

REP

is a filtered version of the RemCap

AV

register

that prevents large jumps in the reported value caused by
changes in the application such as abrupt changes in load
current. The value is stored in terms of FVh and must be
divided by the application sense-resistor value to determine
remaining capacity in mAh. During application idle periods
where the AverageCurrent Register value is less than Q6
LSbs, RemCap

REP

does not change. The measured cur-

rent during this period is still accumulated into RemCap

MIX

and is slowly reflected in RemCap

REP

once cell loading or

charging occurs.

shows the RemCap

REP

register

format.

SOC

AV

Register (0Eh)

The SOC

AV

register holds the calculated present state

of charge of the cell based on all inputs from the
ModelGauge m3 algorithm including empty compensa-
tion. The register value is stored as a percentage with a

resolution of 0.0039% per LSb. If an 8-bit state-of-charge
value is desired, the host can discard the lower byte and
use only the upper byte of the register with a resolution of
1.0%. The SOC

AV

register value is an unfiltered calcula-

tion. Jumps in the value can be caused by changes in
the application such as abrupt changes in load current.

shows the SOC

AV

register format.

RemCap

AV

Register (1Fh)

The RemCap

AV

register holds the calculated remain-

ing capacity of the cell based on all inputs from the
ModelGauge m3 algorithm including empty compen-
sation. The value is stored in terms of FVh and must
be divided by the application sense-resistor value to
determine the remaining capacity in mAh. The register
value is an unfiltered calculation. Jumps in the value can
be caused by changes in the application such as abrupt
changes in load current.
